Last week, when my hot rock band Valley Lodge played at KD Japon in Nagoya as part of our first-ever tour of Japan, I snapped a couple photos of this little Picachu thingy (still not sure what it does besides light up, though that alone is pretty awesome in itself. That big knob on its stomach must do something though I imagine. If I knew how to ask in Japanese, I would have). Tonight, in my severely jet-lagged spare time, I whipped up this unstoppable animated GIF with the pictures. Look into its eyes- the Picachu will change you.
In other news, here is a story about Valley Lodge’s visit to Gibson Japan the day after our Tokyo show. Gibson was nice enough to loan us some hot axes (a Les Paul, an SG, a Firebird, and a Jack Casady bass) for our tour, so we stopped by to say hello. It was a lot of fun and life-changing in ways that I can’t even get into right now.
